Bagpuss, Ivor the Engine, The Clangers, Basil Brush, Noggin the Nog, Pogles Wood .....

One of the founding fathers of children’s TV. Thank you for an innocent, amazing, gentle, interesting childhood of television escapism.

Sleep well 😢

RIP inspirational illustrator Peter Firmin, co-creator of BAGPUSS, THE CLANGERS and the wonderful NOGGIN THE NOG – one of my childhood favourites on both screen and page.
